![]() ![]() ![]() I liked the relationship between Andy and Chucky as it is almost cute at times and in a lot of ways you actually feel sorry for Chucky before he goes nuts because all he wants is to be Andy’s best friend and to protect him because deep down he honestly does care about him in his own weird way. He’s less supernatural this time around and more of an example of technology gone horribly wrong, but it works for the most part. Of course, Andy isn’t too happy about Chucky killing people and tries to get rid of him which only pisses him off and makes him and his mother a target as well.Īs I said, I liked the premise to an extent and even though I missed the whole Charles Lee Ray thing I thought that what they did with Chucky was an interesting concept. ![]() He doesn’t really want it at first and is a little creeped out by it, but soon they start to bond until Chucky goes nuts (after watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2) and starts killing people that are mean to Andy. Andy’s mom ends up getting a hold of the doll after someone returns it to the store where she works and she gives it to Andy as a gift as he doesn’t have any friends (is it just me or does he seem a little too old to play with dolls?). Basically we have this disgruntled factory worker (I guess, I’m not sure as they don’t really go into any detail about the guy) who reprograms Chucky so that all his safety settings are turned off, making him more than a little dangerous for a number of reasons. While I didn’t like the fact that there was no Charles Lee Ray and they totally changed Chucky’s origin it still worked in a way. Sure, it is nowhere near as great as the original film but at the same time I thought it was decent for the most part and was surprised by how much I ended up liking it. I reluctantly decided to watch it expecting to totally despise it but after everything was said and done, I have to say that it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. I had even less desire to see it after I saw the trailer for it and assumed it was going to just be another horrible remake that crapped on the original that was made for the sole purpose of making money with little to no respect for the source material. To be honest I had zero expectations for Child’s Play as I loved the original and hate most remakes in general. A “remake” of the 1988 horror classic of the same name. Soon people around Andy are dying off left and right at Chucky the doll’s hands, and Andy and his mother just may be next. Unfortunately, his new best friend isn’t quite what he seems as someone at the factory where he was built changed the doll’s settings and made him homicidal. That all changes when his mother gets him a Buddi doll, which is the newest craze. 13-year old Andy is new in town and doesn’t have any friends. ![]()
